The latest transfer news surrounding Ajax includes a new link with Tromso defender Abubacarr Sedi Kinteh. Our analysis of the past seven days shows the club has been tied to 6 possible arrivals and 3 potential exits. The items below represent the latest news on the most important transfer rumours, though the hottest storyline right now is about Amar Memić.
Sergio Arribas
On Saturday, it was reported that Ajax has a serious interest in Sergio Arribas and plans to make a significant attempt to sign the 24-year-old attacking midfielder in the summer. The club's new sporting director, Jordi Cruyff, is said to be familiar with the player and wants him to be a central part of the team's reconstruction. Almería has consistently communicated a valuation of 20 million euros for Arribas, an amount that would be split with Real Madrid. This valuation has previously prevented him from moving to a Primera team. Arribas, who is under contract until June 2029, has recorded 14 goals and 7 assists in 27 appearances in the 2025/2026 LaLiga2 season.
Abubacarr Sedi Kinteh
Manchester United are pursuing a summer transfer for Tromso's 19-year-old defender, Abubacarr Sedi Kinteh, according to a Saturday report. Ajax, PSV, and Chelsea are also noted as interested in the Gambia international. A report in The Daily Mail on February 9, 2026, first noted the interest from Man Utd and Chelsea, stating that Tromso wanted a fee of around £4 million. Kinteh's contract with the Norwegian club runs until the end of 2029.
Sean Steur
On Wednesday, it was reported that Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal have observed 18-year-old Dutch player Sean Steur in recent weeks, with scouts attending multiple Ajax games. The three Premier League sides are assessing Steur's preparedness for the league as they seek a new holding midfielder. BlueCo and City Group have been tracking the player for a longer period, while Tottenham and Newcastle have also made inquiries. Eintracht Frankfurt held talks in January but concluded his growing reputation would likely make him unattainable. Ajax is determined to keep Steur, who is contracted until 2028.
Mika Godts
Liverpool now admire Mika Godts, about whom Arsenal recently made an enquiry, as of an update on Wednesday. Dutch media recently claimed a move away this summer is inevitable. Previously, the player's agent, Niels De Jonck, suggested Godts could leave in a very large transfer this summer, adding that a significant bid would complete the transfer. At that time, Ajax stated a deal could be agreed upon this summer for €15-20million (£13-17m).
Daley Blind
AS reported on Thursday that Ajax dreams Daley Blind will finish his career with them. The player is said to be happy at Girona but has much to consider, as he wants to remain competitive. Girona will reportedly offer Blind a renewal and complete freedom to decide his future. Thirteen days ago, Blind stated in an interview with Ziggo Sport that he does not rule out a return to Ajax, noting his contract is running out and that the club has always had a special place in his heart.
Tjark Ernst
According to a Friday update, Porto has now made a move for Hertha BSC goalkeeper Tjark Ernst. The 22-year-old has also attracted interest from Ajax Amsterdam and Borussia Mönchengladbach. Ten days ago, it was reported that his contract includes a release clause of only five million euros and that he wants to play in a top division next season.
Christian Nørgaard
The Sun reported on Friday that Christian Norgaard wants to leave Arsenal after the end of the season to secure a more prominent role. Fifteen days prior, The Sun had reported that Ajax is tracking the midfielder ahead of the summer transfer window. Norgaard has started just seven games this season, none of which have been in the Premier League.
